I went on a date tonight. He seemed really engaged and interested. Well once I returned from the restroom he mentioned being hungry. I said we could get food and also gave him an out to end our date saying we could end the date for him to eat. He said he we could go grab food at another place. Only about 10 minutes into sitting down at the new place he gets a phone call from a friend he hasn’t talk to in awhile and their car broke down and need his help. He ends the date early (which to me it comes off he made his friend call him so he could get out of the date) He then walks me to my car and asks if we could plan for another time. Im guessing to not hurt my feelings. Im embarrassed cus I never really date and I never thought I would be the type that they need their friend to call to get them out of being on a date with me.

Ok so I’ve been away from dating for a long time now. My last relationship ended early on in highschool, and I’m now 23. I’ve just matched with someone on tinder and we’ve set up a potential date later on this week. It’s undecided where it’s happening, but seems like it’ll just be a night in somewhere chilling out with snacks and Netflix. Some info about me is that I’m a very shy and introverted person. Once I get to know people I feel like I’m fine, but it’s getting past the initial meeting and ice breaking that I think is the toughest for me. I struggle to find things to talk about, and I hate awkward silences because I’m constantly trying to think of what to say. Is there anything I should tell her to let her know I feel nervous, how I’m not sure about how things work, etc, thus making things less awkward, or will me saying this make things worse. Basically is there anything I can say that won’t ruin or worse, cancel the situation? Submitted September 27, 2021 at 01:12AM Ok...

We were friends for a couple of years and occasionally had sex when we were horny and single. She's a really cool girl and we have lots in common, but I don't really have that emotional connection with her and never saw us being a full blown couple. I could always tell when something was up. She would slowly start flaking more, then eventually just decline all hangouts from there on. Getting flaked on kind of irked me the wrong way but we were just casually having sex so I never really made a big deal about it. Our last FWB stint lasted about 6 months and nearing the end I saw the same process repeating. Less hangouts, flaking more etc. The last hangout we had scheduled she cancelled on me 30 minutes before because "her leg hurt". This was the straw that broke the camels back for me and I kind of drilled into her. I was really busy that weekend so fitting in our hangout plan took a lot of coordination on my end with friends and family. To have it cancelled last mi...

I've [22f] been trying a few dating apps, but have had no luck. I feel like everyone I match with isn't a good fit. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, am I being too picky, am I using the wrong apps? All tips and recommendations would be great. I've never been in a relationship before, so there are some nerves there. Submitted September 27, 2021 at 01:14AM I've [22f] been trying a few dating apps, but have had no luck.

As an allosexual, I can truly say when I was in middle school I started getting crushes. I held off and never acted in them until after college. To focus on school and my future. For many allosexuals, just being in the same room with a pretty person of the opposite gender is enough to know. Why the rush to be certain about it? Especially when some people don’t know until they are much older. As you focus on your future, you have years to figure out. September 27, 2021 at 12:49AM

I’m 25M and have primarily been in LTRs for the past 6-7 years. Honestly, I’m really self conscious about my kinks. Primarily, I have an anal link that I really do not like to share with people. Now that I’m single and in a city, how would I possibly go about finding someone with that shared interest? How do I build up the courage to be more honest and open with myself and others that I’m hooking up with? Because I keep it to myself, I feel as though I have developed a porn dependency which leaves me feeling very unfulfilled. Any help is appreciated!

I’m 19f and a virgin. I’m buying the Gaia biodegradable eco bullet. I like that it’s cheap, small, and it comes in discreet packaging. I’m just wondering if I should buy lube too. When I masturbate I never insert anything inside myself. I just rub my clit to orgasm. Inserting my finger inside myself doesn’t make me feel good so I’ve stuck to clitoral stimulation. Do you think I’ll be fine using this without lube? Submitted September 27, 2021 at 12:38AM I’m 19f and a virgin. I’m buying the Gaia biodegradable eco bullet.

If I could, I would have sex with my boyfriend everyday. Is that weird or bad? I really don't know. I'm a 28F and he's a 31M. We don't live together now, but are trying to. He's definitely never complained lol. I guess I'm worried, because women are taught that they're not supposed to want sex.

Hey everyone I'm a 28 year old guy who for the past year or two can't stop getting boners when I look at my girlfriend I get a boner and It appears no matter how many times I ejaculate I get hard right away and at most times Its painful to jack off and after 11 times I'm so sore I don't know if the post belongs here but can I get some advice?

I didn't have sex until I was 23, and that's only because I paid for it (was living in a small town and couldn't get laid). But the first time, I had non-transactional sex was when I was 26. Ironically, I've had more opportunities for sex after I turned 26 than previously. Partly, because I traveled, had access to transportation, and had more confidence. But most of my hookups have been through dating apps.

Wondering if anyone out there has had a similar experience or any advice about it. I've noticed sex is not the same and I have another surgery coming up where that could potentially affect my sex life more along with the possibility of having kids. Any advice or someone to chat with would be fine men or women. Submitted September 27, 2021 at 12:57AM Wondering if anyone out there has had a similar experience or any advice about it.

i just started dating this guy and he’s really sweet and all that, and we’ve been on a couple dates. he knows i’m really passionate about crafting, baking, cooking, etc, and has stated a couple times that if i wanted to make him food or like crochet him something or whatever, i should definitely feel free to do so. like i said, we’ve only been on maybe 5 dates, 2 of which were proper “date” dates (planned, went somewhere nice, etc etc). i really want to cook him something, specifically lasagne or some other pasta dish, as i come from italian heritage and, not to brag, but my lasagne SLAPS. my question for you is, how soon is too soon to make him food? it feels like im rushing things if i do something like that for him, but i really want to make him something.

I am a college student who's a compsci major. While I'm very much into active things like powerlifting, running, fishing, etc I'm still kinda stereotypical in that I'm nerdy, introverted, and socially awkward. My question is, do relationships tend to work out better if the couple are opposites or if they're similar? I've only dated a couple of girls that were the opposite of me, e.g. social butterflies, extroverted, more artsy rather than nerdy. While these two relationships didn't last, they were my longest-lasting relationships. I'm finding it's extremely easy to get dates with girls who are like me, stem, introverted, etc but it just seems like things aren't clicking and there's no chemistry with these kinds of girls. Is it an attitude/outlook change I need to make or is there truth to opposites attract? Submitted September 27, 2021 at 12:13AM I am a college student who's a compsci major.

This feeling really sucks and I don’t know what to do. Also considering I feel things aren’t going well. Should I even tell how I feel.

I matched with a girl and we have been chatting for a couple days, but she has been responding 24hrs apart. I dont think its a big deal. We are supposed to be grabbing coffee tomorrow after work. If she shows up then I guess then thats a win and If we click then things would progress. If not then move on. But then I got another match and started talking to someone else today. A little more responsive. Only a couple texts. Convo is back on me, but honestly I feel like waiting to respond. I only have so much social energy. I also stay busy enough that planning out dates with more then one person in a week might be exhausting. For instance if a conversation is going well on a dating app, but I'm already seeing someone on a date, I'd feel cautious to focus too much on it until the first date with the other person. And if a date went well and a 2nd date was scheduled It would feel like a lot to try to get a first date with someone else. So pretty much I have a hard time thinki...
